My resort is not all inclusive so we are already paying for a full wedding reception with open bar. so for us paying for a welcome dinner or rehersal dinner would be out of the question.. we just dont have the money. We are at our resort from wed to wed and so are the majority of our guests with the exception of a few who arrive on thursday. so we decided to do welcome cocktails after dinner on the thursday. Just some drinks and maybe little desserts where our guests can mingle and meet, i still dont know how much it would cost but im thinking ill just run a tab, i cant see our guests having more then a drink or two which would be under $15 a person. This is also where we will be handing out our OOT bags
